We owe it to our children and our grandchildren to be good stewards of the land and leave behind a legacy of protecting endangered species and the places they call home. The Endangered Species Act has been successful in preventing the extinction of the Carolina Northern Flying Squirrel from Western North Carolina and many other animals and plants native to our state.

If the federal agency responsible for enforcing the endangered species did its job, and actually enforced it then there would be no need for citizens to bring enforcement actions on their own. We as citizens have a duty to hold our government accountable and enforce the law when they aren't going to do it for us that is democracy in action.

The Pombo bill would allow a political appointee to determine what constitutes the best science to be used in endangered species decisions. It allows for greater political manipulation of scientific decisions.
